What happens if the Element Name of an OmniScript component is not unique?

• A. The component may not function properly
• B. The component will be automatically renamed
• C. The OmniScript will not save
• D. The component will inherit the name of another

Answer: (A)

When the Element Name of an OmniScript component is not unique, it can lead to conflicts within the script. OmniScripts are designed to flow smoothly and interact with various components and data elements. If two or more components share the same name, it can result in ambiguity for the system when it tries to process the script. This could impact how the components are referenced, and ultimately, the expected functionality may not be achieved. Therefore, ensuring that each Element Name within an OmniScript is unique is crucial for reliable operation and to avoid potential errors during execution.

The other choices don't accurately describe the consequences of a non-unique Element Name. For example, components will not be automatically renamed, nor will the OmniScript fail to save solely due to name conflicts; rather, the functionality of the script itself will be compromised, leading to unpredictable behavior while the OmniScript is executed.
